@Jenayah Yes, but if I, say, do it on Wednesday, then most of the responses that can be give will be given on Monday and Tuesday evening, so it will be a lot of work to edit them to use the new labels.

@Jenayah I'm not saying that most Flashes will be identified, I'm guessing some can't be because they don't appear anywhere else, but I could be surprised, the DC guys are smart and there's a lot of stories to go back to.,

Hello Im 25 from France and I used when I was a young kid to watch TV everynight. Anyway, like 15 years ago I have seen a sci fi movie. It was like in the future, an apocalyptic rainy future with black and white young people with a very dark yet bit cheap mood (it’s not blade ruiner...). I rememb...

While thinking about old movies and shows me an my cousin watched as kids, we remembered an animated movie that had a bunch of school kids who had this card game come to life. And no it was not Yu-Gi-Oh!.
In the movie, the characters and monsters in the card game the high school kids possesed st...

My question is about a book or short story about a creature called a PUTIE and his quest to old Earth ruins. He makes the discovery that his race evolved from the common house cat. "We're not putie, we're cat!" It reminded me a little of Planet of the Apes. I know, to much to go on, but worth a s...

During the Dominion War, after Dr. Bashir is replaced aboard the station with a Changeling, why doesn't the Changeling at least attempt to kill the senior staff? Killing the staff would likely be relatively easy, all things considered. And certainly the loss of Sisko, Kira, Dax, and O'Brien would...

In the end of Half-Blood Prince Harry explains to Ginny why they can't be together anymore:
"Voldemort uses people his enemies are close to. He's already used you
as bait once, and that was just because you're my best friend's
sister. Think how much danger you'll be in if we keep this up....

If you're editing a question, and someone else saves an edit before you do you can only save your edit if it is "more thorough" than the previous one. This is the message you get:
Now imagine that you are editing a long post and you have corrected a dozen spelling mistakes, or other such minor...

I am looking for a short story I read in a collection some years ago. The main character is a very busy jetsetting businessman who is always plugged into technology. He visits a factory or school which is producing robots that can learn, and when he is there they stop their tasks because they nee...

Does it continue the running theme throughout the film? The things I can think of are:
Don't ever be ashamed of who you are -Norman
and
Then why does he wear a mask? What's he got to hide? -Jameson
Obviously the two main characters wear a mask (Green Goblin and Spider-Man). Is the to...

In the episode A Knight of Shadows from the Justice League (2001) animated series, the Justice League and Etrigan were trying to find Morgaine Le Fay, to prevent her from finding a powerful magical object she was looking for.
Around the middle of the episode, J'onn suggests that he could try to...

I remember that I read a book some year ago, in which the main computer of a space station somehow became self aware. For reasons I can't remember, it plucked the mind from a recently deceased engineer to preserve it. The main plot revolved at times about scientists looking for a way to preserve ...

Could you have misremembered a scene from a book as being from a movie? Exactly what you describe happens to a character called Charlie Roper in Eagle Strike, the fourth book in the Alex Rider series by Anthony Horowitz about a teenage spy. Here is a quote from the Alex Rider Wikia:
Roper wor...

I'm looking for a pair of YA science fiction books from the 90's about a rebellion against an evil space empire. I remember reading these books in primary school, in the 90's, but don't remember a lot about them.
As is often the case, I can recall only some details about the book, not the main p...

The best thing to do is to click the "reopen" button (which shows up if youve got over 3000 rep and puts the question into the review queue) and post a comment explaining that the story-id is on topic, then wait for the community to reopen the question, allowing you to post an answer.

In 1992 cartoon film Ramayana: The Legend of Prince Rama, Rama needed to transport his troops across Indian Ocean to attack Ravana. Unfortunately, he didn't have airforce or navy. So, he built a bridge to transport his army.
But, why did Ravana allowed this construction of bridge? Why didn't his...

The summary goes something like this.
A family with a young child is about to enter the last ship departing earth. They're told they cannot carry their pet dog along. Aghast, they leave it behind. The young kid does not understand the reason for the evacuation (which I vaguely remember as a globa...

OK, so, when Sulley traps Waternoose out the simulator room, he takes the simulator room closet door of the control panels. Earlier in the film, we see Waternoose send said door to the door station.
My question is: If activated, where would it lead? Or is the red light broken, like Sulley did to...

Probably a paperback read 70s or 80s in English.

This female cyborbg was trapped into a waste deposit, she was protecting what appears to be her child. She doesn't want to be destroyed/recycled. She wanted to live.
This is the only scene from that anime that I remember, it was a very sad and dark scene that impact me so much when I was a child...

@Alex I never really got along with the "We should always be righteous! We should keep proning values that I was already proning in the 50s!" and the boy scout attitude characters.

On Cap particularly, I guess the character has some storyarcs in which it actually deviates from that (and not just "it's an alternate universe, he's a villain, deal with it"), but almost all issues I picked had depictions I didn't really get along with... And I didn't look much further afterwards :p (on his solo series at least)

I see paradoxes everywhere in life and nature (everything and nothing simultaneously [0s and 1s][binary code]). I am interested in theoretical philosophies in order to explain truths beyond the current limits of science and perception. Imagine what a quantum computer would eventually evolve int...

@Alex both Marvel and DC (and other comics companies) have "Multiverses".

Basically, several Earths live in a parallel way

With a "central Earth" which is the place most cannon takes place in

These alternate/parallel worlds are often used by writers who have an idea, but said idea is too weird/won't be developed enough to take place in the central Earth.

So you end up with planets populated by the same heroes/villains/civilians but they're all vampires, another where the most popular Green Lantern is actually a Yellow Lantern, another one where the roles are reverted (villains are the heroes and vice-versa), etc, etc

Good, better than I expected. Unpacking took shorter than I expected, new room has more space than I expected, and it turns out a mate is my next-door neighbour, so I got help moving my boxes to my floor

I don't see any evidence that the rules allowed Dumbledore to know what the tasks were significantly in advance. In fact, I don't see any evidence that Dumbledore actually did know the tasks significantly in advance, nor any evidence that anyone was ever officially told significantly in advance.

I recently answered and edited a question, but didn't receive an explainer badge.

@Alex To be honest I've recently edited one character and one tag and I'm pretty sure it counted

It's a fantasy cartoon show which was aired in India around 2005-12. This show is about a man who was trying to find his dad, and he has his dad's diary containing information about some magic or monster. During his search, he meets guys who also know the info written in the diary. The main chara...

In the universe of Star Trek, Vulcans and Romulans were one species as late as the fourth century CE, about two thousand years prior to the TNG era.
Is there a reliable or standard way to tell the difference between a Vulcan and a Romulan in the absence of any other context (such as genealogies,...

In "Through the Looking Glass" (S3E19 of DS9), mirror O'Brien kidnaps Benjamin Sisko from the primary universe to temporarily replace the dead mirror Sisko who is/was the leader of the Terran rebellion. Upon reaching the rebellion's base in the Badlands, we meet mirror Jadzia for the first time. ...
